Your unending compassion
Your forgiveness abound
Your relentless aura
Your upside down frown
Your playful laughter
Your appreciation for details
Your concern for the fallen
Your support 'un-curtailed'
I miss your wise words
Your delighful presence
We had our disagreements
Yes, I had taken so much offense
Grown from a sketch to a mural
From wooded parks to concrete jungles
From a grain of sand to a pearl
But you need not worry, I'll always be your little girl.
Distance makes your hearts fonder. Often quoted in context of non-platonic relationships. But turns out, that this quote holds true for all relationships alike.
My father and I have always bonded on a very special level. We have had the deepest of conversations, the most intelligent of discussions, and the most heated of arguments; he has been a friend, a mentor, an advisor, a confidant, and someone I have looked up to for so many reasons.
Recent happenings in my life have made me focus so much on the present and future that I somehow feel more distant from the past than I really am. After all, your past is what makes your present being.
Being very content in my current state of being, I still miss my innocent childhood days when my parents were all I needed. No matter how busy or diluted I get, I will always continue to be the most important thing in their lives.
This one is for my father. I haven't seen him in four months, but I will see him very soon. I miss him and hope to have some amazing memories in the few days leading up to my big day.
Understanding fathers are one of God's greatest gifts, and I thank Him for giving me the best one he's made so far.
Cheers.
